While waiting for Donut to make an appearance at a local show (not sure if he made it as I left before he was there if he did), I bought some poopy books.

 

Without trying, it seems that I was attracted by the gentler sex this morning -

an odd mostly-comic book. what's Baker and what's not?

not sure who did this one, but I call him/her the "upskirt artist":

and who wrote these things? didn't they realize they were writing for comic books and not pulps? I mean, leave a little room for the art.

None of those examples is Baker.

GCD sez "I Was Tired of Being Good" and "Breaking Hearts Was My Hobby". I don't see it in the first one, but 'maybe' the second. This book is on the Baker checklist I copied from Alter Ego some time ago, but not sure how accurate that is.

"Being Good", no way in my opinion. "Breaking Hearts" has elements of Baker, might have been victimized by bad inking.

 

I feel that artists were told to imitate Baker- his comics sold. I could see some artist copying from his work under orders from St.John.

Been a while since I got a Raggedy Ann & Andy in. This is # 31, just in time for Christmas -

...a very interesting thread that shows that there is always more to learn. Here are my contributions, though hardly obscure!

I'd call those obscure, in the sense of hard to find, especially in that condition. Great books!

This is a very, very unusual cover for a DC super-hero book. I like it!

Yes, it's more like Alfred Hitchcock!

 

I like these "psychological" covers!
